The New York State Association of Counties (NYSAC) will celebrate its centennial fall seminar at the Niagara Falls Convention Center from Sept. 7-9, marking 100 years of uniting county leaders from across the state.

Hosted in partnership with the Niagara County Host Committee, led by Niagara County Legislature Chair Rebecca J. Wydysh, the event is expected to draw 300 attendees – generating an estimated $323,326 in economic impact for Niagara County.

Attendees will stay at the Sheraton Niagara Falls and Wyndham Garden at the Falls, with opportunities to experience the city’s many restaurants, world-class attractions, and the natural wonder of Niagara Falls during their visit.

“Niagara County is excited to welcome our fellow county leaders from across New York state to NYSAC’s fall seminar, an opportunity to discuss important county issues, share ideas and work together to better our communities,” Wydysh said. “I appreciate the efforts of Destination Niagara to pull this event together and ensure our guests will have an opportunity to see some of the very best of Niagara Falls and Niagara County during their visit."
